The province’s agriculture minister said the increase came despite a challenging growing season for many producers.
“Despite challenges faced by many producers this growing season, overall Saskatchewan production was up this year thanks to the resilience and innovation of producers,” David Marit said in a statement. “This record production puts us within reach of the growth plan goal of 45 million metric tonnes by 2030.”
Spring wheat led production volumes at 12.7 million metric tonnes, followed closely by canola at a record 12.2 million. Durum production totalled 5.4 million metric tonnes, while barley came in at 3.5 million.
Lentil production also reached a record high at 2.9 million metric tonnes. Dry peas and oats each accounted for 1.8 million metric tonnes.
Several key crops posted significant year-over-year gains in 2025. Lentil production rose 37 per cent, canola increased 16.7 per cent and barley climbed 16 per cent. Durum production was up 8.5 per cent, while spring wheat increased 5.3 per cent.
The figures are based on Statistics Canada’s Saskatchewan estimates, drawn from a post-harvest survey of 7,198 farmers conducted between Oct. 3 and Nov. 6, 2025.
